Peter Hook playing old New Order at Clwb Ifor Bach. Icy washes of synth. Skull pincering drums. And the bass. Brilliant.

@colebridge5bull The voice was closer to Curtis than Barny which was spooky on New Order numbers.

Saw Peter Hook & The Light in Cardiff tonight. Genuinely one of the best gigs I have ever been to. New Order 1981-83. I was in heaven!

Peter Hook and the Light were pretty bloody impressive. Nice reworking of old fav's too.

Peter Hook was pretty brilliant tonight. Even though he insisted on murdering a melodica live on stage. Otherwise, GOOD FUN.

@brokensleeper Peter Hook playing New Order songs under the banner of New Order when New Order are still around as New Order is shameful.
